The number of valence electrons is dependent on which group of the Periodic Table the element is in.
Since Argon is in group 8, it has a total of 8valence electrons.
Since Argon (Ar) is a noble gas (meaning it has a full valence shell), it has 8 electrons.
It's atomic number is 18, so the first shell has 2 electrons, the second shell has 8 electrons, and the third shell also has 8 electrons... summing up to 18 electrons.
remember that the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th shells can hold only 2, 8, 8, and 18 electrons (respectively)
Argon has 8 valence electrons (8 electrons in its outer shell). These consist of 2 electrons from the 3px, 3py, and 3pz orbitals (for a total of 6 electrons) and 2 from the 3 s orbital for a grand total of 8 electrons in the outer shell.
The element Argon(AR) has 18 electrons
Argon is a Noble gas. Noble gases all have 8 valence electrons.
Argon is a chemical metal element. There are 18 electrons in a single atom.
The inner shell has 2 electrons while the outer shell has 8 electrons
Argon has a total of 18 electrons. There are 2, 8 and 8 electrons in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd energy levels respectively.
This is a chemical element. You can find the how many electron in a single atom by using a periodic table.
Argon has 8 valence electrons (electrons in the outer shell)
Argon has three full shells of electrons. Elements react to form bonds so that their outer shell is full. As Argon has a full outer shell it is unreactive
Argon has eight valence (outer) shell electrons. It is a Noble Gas so its valence shell is full (Octet Rule).
It has a full outer shell of electrons
Argon has a full outer shell of electrons and so it generally does not form chemical bonds.
No. Argon has eight electrons in its outer shell and magnesium has two electrons in its outer shell.
Argon has 8 valence electrons (electrons in the outer shell)
The electron configuration of argon is [Ne] 3s2 3p6. From this, we can see that the outer shell contains eight electrons.
Yes it is . The outer argon is full becoz it has 18 electrons
Argon has three full shells of electrons. Elements react to form bonds so that their outer shell is full. As Argon has a full outer shell it is unreactive
Argon is a Noble gas--one with eight electrons in its outer shell.
Argon has eight valence (outer) shell electrons. It is a Noble Gas so its valence shell is full (Octet Rule).
It has a full outer shell of electrons
Argon has a full outer shell of electrons and so it generally does not form chemical bonds.
Neon (atomic number 10) and Argon (atomic number 18) mostly do not react with other elements because their outermost electron shells have a full complement of electrons. When two elements combine into a molecule they share electrons from their outermost electron shell. This happens when one element has a minimal number of electrons in its outer shell and the other element has an almost full complement of electrons in its outer shell. When they share electrons, they both have the equivalent of full outer electron shells. Since both Neon and Argon have full outermost shells by themselves they do not have a tendency to share electrons.
The number of electrons in the outer shell of Beryllium is 2.
He :The number of electrons in an atom's outer electron shell determines how many dots there are. Helium has 2 electrons in its outer electron shell, so 2 dots.
